1st (3) (5/1 +9%) Let Her Loose |
5/1(+9%) | (3) Let Her Loose 5/1, Seen to good effect from the front when landing 7-runner handicap at Brighton (11.9f, good) under this rider in June. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (7/2) at Nottingham (10.2f, good to soft) 27 days ago, slowly away. Up in trip. Emphatic win at Brighton in June and she had an excuse back at 1m2f last time; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (7/1 +30%) Aighear |
7/1(+30%) | (9) Aighear 7/1, Bit below form 13½ lengths eighth of 14 to Chief Craftsman in handicap at Doncaster (16.5f, good to firm, 6/1) 22 days ago. Back down in trip. Given a chance by the handicapper. Yet to hit top gear this season and was well held at Doncaster last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (10/1 -33%) Chief Craftsman |
10/1(-33%) | (5) Chief Craftsman 10/1, Latest win at Doncaster in July under this rider. 7/1, creditable 4¾ lengths sixth of 12 to Point of Honour in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good) 16 days ago, not ideally placed. One to note. Won over 2m last month but was never involved behind Point Of Honour at Catterick latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (4/1 +20%) Point Of Honour |
4/1(+20%) | (7) Point Of Honour 4/1, C&D winner. 15/2, won 12-runner handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good) 16 days ago, quickening clear. Rider can claim 5 lb this time and he's respected. Won this last year and he scored in good style at Catterick last time; big player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (50/1 -25%) Cheese And Wine |
50/1(-25%) | (10) Cheese And Wine 50/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. Tenth of 11 in minor event at this course (12.5f, good, 25/1) 10 days ago. Yet to be placed in 19 starts and she's been well held here (1m4f) in her last two runs. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (4/1 -14%) Graces Quest |
4/1(-14%) | (2) Graces Quest 4/1, Course winner. Latest win at Carlisle in June. 13/2, fourth of 5 in handicap at Hamilton (12.1f, good) 31 days ago, left poorly placed. This is easier and rider going well (2 winners and 2 seconds from last 6 rides under Rules). Lots to like. Won at Carlisle in June but has not really gone on from that and others look stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (8/1 +33%) Excelcius |
8/1(+33%) | (1) Excelcius 8/1, Flat/hurdle winner in Ireland for Thomas Mullins in 2021. 25/1, bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Ayr (13.1f, good) 11 days ago. Last win was in 2021 and unplaced in all nine starts for current yard; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (4.5/1 +10%) Spirit Of Ash |
4.5/1(+10%) | (8) Spirit Of Ash 4.5/1, Winner at Newcastle in June. Creditable second of 11 at this course (12.5f, good, 9/4) 10 days ago. Tricky sort. Frequent slow starter but she's done well since a hood has been applied; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (16/1 -33%) Ally Cay |
16/1(-33%) | (6) Ally Cay 16/1, Modest Flat handicapper, won at Roscommon in 2020, and twice over hurdles in 2021. Off 14 months. First run for yard after leaving John McConnell. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Lengthy absence to overcome, but worth keeping an eye on in the market. With new yard and has something to prove back on the Flat after 446 days off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (28/1 -100%) Red Missile |
28/1(-100%) | (4) Red Missile 28/1, Temperamental sort. Course winner. Last of 8 in handicap (25/1) at this course (16f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Has lost his way under both codes in last five runs and has a lot to prove. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
A comfortable winner over 1m4f at Catterick last month, POINT OF HONOUR can secure a double stepping up in distance. Pippa Brown negates all of the gelding's 4lb rise for that success with her 5lb claim and the eight-year-old is taken to get the better of Spirit Of Ash, who finished a staying-on second over an extended 1m4f at this track most recently. Let Her Loose completes the shortlist.
GRACES QUEST drops in grade and the dual course winner looks the way to go under an amateur enjoying a good run. A market move for the returning Ally Cay would be worth following, while Point of Honour could go well again.
Top of the list is last year's winner POINT OF HONOUR who scored in good style at Catterick two weeks ago and remains feasibly treated.

Vince L'Amour |
(2) (6.5/1 +7%)6.5/1(+7%) | (2) Vince L'Amour 6.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden who showed more in a first-time tongue strap when fifth of 8 in minor event (25/1) at Catterick (5f, good) 16 days ago, jockey suspended 2 days for failing to ride out for fourth. Into handicaps now and may do better still. Quietly progressive in novice events and he should have more to offer in nurseries. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (1) (2/1 +50%) Grey Gray |
2/1(+50%) | (1) Grey Gray 2/1, Found a small bit of progress to get off the mark at Lingfield (5f) in June. Not disgraced on nursery debut there (6f) subsequently and ought to benefit from a return to the minimum trip. Respected. Didn't seem to get home over 6f last time and could resume her progress back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (2.25/1 -13%) Bazball |
2.25/1(-13%) | (5) Bazball 2.25/1, Opened account in 7-runner nursery at Bath (5f, good) 16 days ago, driven out. 7 lb higher now but likely to remain competitive. Off the mark with a dominant display at Bath two weeks ago; big player again up 7lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (33/1 -32%) Zaphea |
33/1(-32%) | (9) Zaphea 33/1, Has shown just poor form at best in varied company. Others preferred. Has struggled in three of her four runs including on her nursery debut last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (7.5/1 +25%) Moyola |
7.5/1(+25%) | (4) Moyola 7.5/1, Failed to improve making nursery debut in a first-time tongue strap when fifth in 9-runner C&D event (good) 10 days ago. Others appeal more. Safely held in all four runs including a C&D nursery ten days ago; needs to find more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (5/1 +17%) Celestial Flight |
5/1(+17%) | (3) Celestial Flight 5/1, Built on debut promise when landing a 6f York seller in June. Ran below that level switched to a nursery at Pontefract (6f) since, though. Disappointing on nursery debut at Pontefract and he needs to kick on again back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (7/1 +13%) Out Of Line |
7/1(+13%) | (7) Out Of Line 7/1, Just poor form to date and has been handed a stiff-looking opening mark. Still early days but she needs plenty of progress on nursery debut; stablemate of Bazball. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (20/1 -43%) Naval Flight |
20/1(-43%) | (8) Naval Flight 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden who failed to improve when eighth of 14 in nursery at Catterick (5f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Some ability at Beverley but she weakened on her nursery debut at Catterick last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
In a contest lacking depth, it could be worth siding with CELESTIAL FLIGHT, who was a beaten favourite when sixth on his nursery debut at Pontefract last month. He kept on to score in selling company on his penultimate start at York, beating the reopposing Bazball into fourth, and he is fancied to confirm that form. Karl Burke's inmate has since won at Bath and is feared most off 7lb higher. Grey Gray heads the remainder.
BE HERE NOW took a step forward when third on his nursery debut over C&D last week and, with further progress possible, he's just about the most appealing candidate. Bath scorer Bazball is feared most, ahead of Grey Gray, who will be suited by a return to the minimum trip.
Preference is for BAZBALL, who got off the mark with a dominant display in a Bath nursery two weeks ago and is open to more progress.

1st (6) (0.62/1 -9%) Consoling |
0.62/1(-9%) | (6) Consoling 0.62/1, Twice-raced filly. 8/1, second of 13 in maiden at Carlisle (5.8f, soft) 46 days ago. Should get the longer trip and seems to have been found an excellent opportunity to open her account. Has run well in both starts and the form has worked out well; extra furlong should suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (7.5/1 -125%) Mister Daydream |
7.5/1(-125%) | (4) Mister Daydream 7.5/1, Once-raced colt. Last of 8 in minor event at Beverley (7.4f, soft, evens) on debut 45 days ago. Could prove a different proposition having been given a short break. Warm favourite when tailed off on debut, but little went right for him; can do much better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (40/1 -21%) Curious Rover |
40/1(-21%) | (1) Curious Rover 40/1, Foaled February 11. €3,000 yearling, The Irish Rover colt. Dam unraced. Unlikely to feature. Stable not known for winning newcomers; best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (12/1 -41%) Nina Rapida |
12/1(-41%) | (9) Nina Rapida 12/1, Foaled February 14. £2,000 yearling, Masar filly. Dam 7f winner out of useful 2-y-o 5f-7f winner Satulagi. One for shortlist on debut given connections, acknowledging she didn't cost much. Doesn't leap of the page on breeding but stable can get one ready first time; watch market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (40/1 +20%) Infinite Honour |
40/1(+20%) | (2) Infinite Honour 40/1, Foaled February 20. 5,000 gns yearling, Decorated Knight gelding. Dam, Italian 5f winner, half-sister to useful 9f-1½m winner Exoteric out of useful winner up to 1m (2-y-o 6f/7f winner) Short Dance. Yard not renowned for debut winners. Already gelded and wouldn't be an obvious winner first time out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (33/1 +34%) Nevzilla |
33/1(+34%) | (8) Nevzilla 33/1, Once-raced filly. 25/1, last of 8 in minor event at Ripon (6f, good to firm) on debut 25 days ago. Tailed-off last on her Ripon debut last month; needs to leave that performance behind. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (14/1 +72%) Kingsford |
14/1(+72%) | (3) Kingsford 14/1, Once-raced colt. 50/1, tenth of 12 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f) on debut 6 days ago. Hard to fancy. Well beaten on his Newcastle debut six days ago; nicely bred but may need more time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (8.5/1 +58%) Blufferonthebus |
8.5/1(+58%) | (5) Blufferonthebus 8.5/1, Once-raced filly. Sixth of 10 in minor event at Beverley (5f, good to soft, 33/1) on debut 17 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Might do better for that initial experience. Well held on Beverley debut; up 2f in trip and needs more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (7/1 +50%) Lady Of Time |
7/1(+50%) | (7) Lady Of Time 7/1, Twice-raced filly. Sixth of 11 in maiden at Catterick (7f, good, 7/1) 9 days ago, not knocked about. Has the potential for better but looks more of a handicap type. Sixth in both starts last month, may do better when tackling nurseries after this. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CONSOLING built on her debut to finish a creditable second over 6f at Carlisle in June and a reproduction of that effort can see her firmly in the picture. Ollie Pears' filly kept on well on that occasion and shaped as though she could benefit from a stiffer stamina test here. Mister Daydream was a well-beaten favourite on his racecourse bow at Beverley in June and is fancied to improve, while Lady Of Time looks best of the rest.
CONSOLING improved from her debut when runner-up at Carlisle and, with the longer trip likely to suit, she's expected to open her account in a weak race. Mister Daydream could prove a different proposition to his debut, so he's worth a mention and Nina Rapida is an interesting newcomer for a stable that has been amongst the winners lately.
This looks a good opportunity for CONSOLING. She has already shown more than enough in two starts to be able to win a race like this.

1st (5) (6.5/1 -86%) The Gay Blade |
6.5/1(-86%) | (5) The Gay Blade 6.5/1, Modest gelding. Third of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Hamilton (6f, good) 15 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Player. 6f winner last year; solid effort latest and stays this far; handles good to soft; chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (40/1 -100%) Doomsday |
40/1(-100%) | (2) Doomsday 40/1, 28/1, last of 10 in handicap at this course (9f, good) 81 days ago, slowly away. Back down in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. 7f winner for another yard last year; quiet in two runs this spring; headgear added now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (33/1 +0%) Wrenegade Lad |
33/1(+0%) | (12) Wrenegade Lad 33/1, Poor gelding. 40/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Offered a bit more last time and unexposed at the trip; ground a concern though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (3/1 +57%) Without Delay |
3/1(+57%) | (7) Without Delay 3/1, Modest filly. Course winner. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 23 days ago, nearest finish. Merits consideration. Course winner (1m) and this is a drop in grade; soft ground would be a question mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (4/1 +27%) Willing To Please |
4/1(+27%) | (6) Willing To Please 4/1, Modest mare. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 6/4, below form sixth of 10 in minor event at Brighton (8f, good) 24 days ago. Can make presence felt. Solid form claims but her two runs on slower than good have been unconvincing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (20/1 +0%) Lucky Lucky Lucky |
20/1(+0%) | (3) Lucky Lucky Lucky 20/1, Modest gelding. One win from 29 Flat runs. Eleventh of 13 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 22/1). Off 112 days. Won similar event on AW in February; off since quiet run in April; rain would be a concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (6.5/1 -8%) Intoxicata |
6.5/1(-8%) | (10) Intoxicata 6.5/1, Modest filly. Winner at Lingfield in June. 4/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 23 days ago. 7f AW winner in June; less good twice since; something to prove for now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (2.5/1 -25%) Bonito Cavalo |
2.5/1(-25%) | (1) Bonito Cavalo 2.5/1, Modest gelding. Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 2/1, good second of 6 in handicap at Ayr (5f, heavy) 4 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Has good chance on form and can open his account. Exposed maiden but he has been knocking at the door of late; stamina for 7f not assured. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (25/1 -56%) Made Of Lir |
25/1(-56%) | (11) Made Of Lir 25/1, Modest filly. Latest win at Ripon in June. Visored for 1st time, fifth of 8 in handicap at Leicester (8.2f, soft, 14/1) 9 days ago. Three sprint wins but stamina a concern here, especially were it to go soft. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (50/1 -52%) Miss Snuggles |
50/1(-52%) | (4) Miss Snuggles 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Catterick (7f, good to soft), very slowly away. Off 10 months. Minor promise one year ago but well beaten at Catterick when last seen 11 months ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (28/1 +15%) George Lodge |
28/1(+15%) | (8) George Lodge 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in handicap (20/1) at Carlisle (6.9f, good to soft) 64 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Uphill task. Some promise over C&D in May but well held next time; new headgear given a go. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (9) (100/1 -100%) Hold On Together |
100/1(-100%) | (9) Hold On Together 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1, last of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, soft) 20 days ago. Poor form in her four starts and not easily recommended. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
BONITO CAVALO was a very good second over 5f at Ayr on Monday and he's fancied to go one better here. Jim Goldie's charge is likely to enjoy this step back up to 7f after shaping as if the extra yardage would suit on that occasion. The Gay Blade looks the biggest danger after a decent third over 6f at Hamilton, while Willing To Please should be taken seriously back at this trip.
BONITO CAVALO was beaten only by a relatively unexposed sort at Ayr on Monday and has a good chance of finally breaking his duck. Without Delay, The Gay Blade and Willing To Please make up the shortlist.
In an unappealing betting event the tentative vote goes to THE GAY BLADE on the back of his solid third at Hamilton two weeks ago.

1st (7) (2/1 -6%) Only Spoofing |
2/1(-6%) | (7) Only Spoofing 2/1, Won this corresponding event from a 7 lb higher mark in 2022 and turned in his best effort of the season when second in 5-runner handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Major player. C&D record reads 311 including winning this race last year off 7lb higher; good run latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (5/1 -43%) Princess Karine |
5/1(-43%) | (6) Princess Karine 5/1, Ran out a convincing winner at Carlisle in June and has run well both starts in defeat since, though doesn't seem to have much in hand from present mark. C&D winner; having a good season but not much wiggle room off her current mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (6.5/1 +35%) Looking For Lynda |
6.5/1(+35%) | (3) Looking For Lynda 6.5/1, C&D winner who is yet to fully fire this season. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Useful 2yo; handicapper on top this season; slower ground and new headgear may help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (11/1 +39%) Look Out Louis |
11/1(+39%) | (2) Look Out Louis 11/1, Had a productive 2022, winning 4 times, but hasn't returned in much form this term. Enough to prove despite falling mark. Having a quiet year but he's down in the weights and class today; handles good to soft. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (8.5/1 +47%) Resilience |
8.5/1(+47%) | (9) Resilience 8.5/1, Fared much better than of late having dropped in the weights when runner-up over C&D early last month. Well held at York subsequently but is best excused that run having been left poorly placed. Went close over C&D last month and not well drawn latest; still vulnerable in this field. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (12/1 +52%) Jordan Electrics |
12/1(+52%) | (8) Jordan Electrics 12/1, Confirmed the promise of his stable debut when landing a significant gamble at Ayr in May. Followed up in determined fashion at Hamilton 10 days later but has gone off the boil since. Two 5f wins in May; not at his best on his last two runs though and others are stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (22/1 -214%) Never Dark |
22/1(-214%) | (4) Never Dark 22/1, Recorded a second success of the all-weather season at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 7/2) in January. Not seen since though, so may just need the run on this return to turf. Conditions no problem & in form when last seen 7 months ago; this is a higher grade though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (5.5/1 +8%) Ready Freddie Go |
5.5/1(+8%) | (1) Ready Freddie Go 5.5/1, C&D winner who produced a career best when scoring from the front at Catterick in June. Lost out only to a pair of younger rivals at Doncaster since and seems likely to be on the premises again. Better than ever the last twice but ground slower than good would be a major negative. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (11/1 -22%) Runninwild |
11/1(-22%) | (5) Runninwild 11/1, Failed to come on for his reappearance when only sixth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good to firm, 11/4) 63 days ago. On the plus side, he's been eased a further 2 lb. Yet to fire this season but on a dangerous mark; something to prove on slower than good. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Never Dark was a gutsy winner over 5f at Wolverhampton and he appears primed to offer another bold bid. However, having been raised 5lb in the ratings for that head success, he may be susceptible to some better treated rivals like ONLY SPOOFING. The veteran was just touched off over 5f at Bellewstown last time and a repeat of that effort would see him take the beating off just 1lb higher in the ratings. Ready Freddie Go should also be considered.
ONLY SPOOFING signalled he's ready to strike again soon when runner-up at Bellewstown last month, so he's selected to land this race for a second year running. Resilience went pretty close over C&D on his penultimate start and is better judged on that form having been left poorly placed when well held at York last time. Ready Freddie Go arrives at the top of his game and completes the shortlist.
Last year's winner ONLY SPOOFING (nap) ran well at Bellewstown last time and can enhance his fine record over C&D.

1st (2) (4/1 -60%) Foreseeable Future |
4/1(-60%) | (2) Foreseeable Future 4/1, 3 wins from 9 runs this year. 7/2, won 9-runner handicap at Thirsk (5f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Shortlist material. Three wins already this year; 2lb well in following last week's Thirsk win; contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3/1 +10%) Borough |
3/1(+10%) | (3) Borough 3/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Ayr (5f, good, 9/2) 11 days ago, readily. Carries penalty. Can go well again. Impressive at Ayr 11 days ago; well in under a penalty; could have more to come. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (7.5/1 +38%) The Grey Lass |
7.5/1(+38%) | (8) The Grey Lass 7.5/1, Fifth of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm, 6/1) 30 days ago. Others more persuasive. Not quite hit last season's heights in 2023; best on good/faster so rain wouldn't be ideal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (7/1 +50%) Hard Nut |
7/1(+50%) | (6) Hard Nut 7/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2019. 7/2, fifth of 6 in handicap at Ayr (5f, heavy) 4 days ago. Tumbled down the weights; eyecatching jockey booking; probably wouldn't want much rain. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (3.5/1 +42%) John Kirkup |
3.5/1(+42%) | (4) John Kirkup 3.5/1, C&D winner. Twenty three runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good, 3/1) 9 days ago, never nearer. One to consider. Conditions won't faze him & he's been running well this year; hard to win with now though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (28/1 +0%) Koropick |
28/1(+0%) | (10) Koropick 28/1, Two wins from 48 Flat runs. Forty one runs since last win in 2017. Seventh of 11 in handicap (25/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 10 days ago. Blinkers back on. Regressive veteran; best run this year came over C&D but still easy enough to swerve. |

33/1(-175%) | (9) Genevieve 33/1, Fourth of 6 in handicap (11/4) at Ayr (5f, heavy) 4 days ago. Still has time to do better but it may not be over this sharp 5f. |

8th (1) (12/1 -71%) Modular Magic |
12/1(-71%) | (1) Modular Magic 12/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. 9/1, last of 6 in handicap at Ayr (5f, good) 26 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form. Drops in class and well handicapped; record on slow ground not inspiring though. |

9th (5) (22/1 -57%) Beneficiary |
22/1(-57%) | (5) Beneficiary 22/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 9/2). Off 91 days. Makes turf debut. Chance on his form for K Burke; less good for new yard; makes his turf debut. |

10th (7) (11/1 +21%) Hot Scoop |
11/1(+21%) | (7) Hot Scoop 11/1, 8/1, 5½ lengths sixth of 9 to Foreseeable Future in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good to soft) 7 days ago. On a good mark and won't mind rain; stall 1 not ideal for a prominent racer though. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
BOROUGH was a facile winner over 5f at Ayr recently and this looks a good opportunity to build on that success. Iain Jardine's runner scored by three and a quarter lengths on that occasion and a 6lb penalty may not be enough to stop him. Foreseeable Future is also a last time out winner after scoring over 5f at Thirsk and he isn't ruled out, while John Kirkup heads the remainder.
FORESEEABLE FUTURE resumed winning ways in straightforward fashion at Thirsk last week and this looks another good opportunity. Borough finally broke his duck at Ayr 11 days ago, but he did so in stylish fashion so is feared most under a penalty, with John Kirkup best of the others.
Foreseeable Future and BOROUGH are ahead of the handicapper and the latter can follow up his recent impressive Ayr success.
Ths is the racecard key.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
